Excerpt from New National Fourth Reader
When he got back, he found that dinner was over, and papa and mamma had gone to ride. He 'found a piece Of bread and butter, and sat down on a large rock, with his back against the stump Of a tree, to eat it.
When it was all gone, Johnny began to think what he Should do next. He closed his eyes as people are apt to do when they think.
Presently he heard a score Of voices about him. One was saying, Wait a bit; another, Pretty soon; another, In a minute; another, By and by; and still another, louder than the rest, kept screaming as loud as it could, Going to, going to, going to, till Johnny thought they were crazy.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the development of reading methods for children during the 19th century. At the time, reading instruction was largely seen as a mechanical skill. Authors like the one featured here believed reading should instead engage the mind as well as the eyes and vocal cords. The author offers various insights about the nature of learning and how to engage a child's natural inquisitiveness. Ultimately, the author argues that while mechanical reading skill is a good building block for learning, genuine literacy is only possible when children are encouraged to connect the words on the page to their own lives and the world around them.
